      I never kept them with shrimps but I don't see a reason why not. Even in my Betta tank where he is acting like a predator it is not easy to stop shrimps from multiplying. Just know that Garra is extremely active fish and maybe that will stress shrimps so they will hide more than usual.

      I know they are very strict in Australia and a lot of fish and plants are forbidden. Well if you are in Europe, Germany is close to Poland. I think they supply the whole Europe. All the fish we get in Croatia is either from Germany or Czech Republic.

    In my 20 gallon tank i have 2 blue neon stiphodon gobies and one flying arrow goby (similar to your red lipstick goby). A problem that i have with mine is that they are very skittish and picky eaters - my blue neon gobies only eat one brand of algae wafer and refuse the other brands. Similarly, my flying arrow goby is very skittish and only eats brine shrimp that have sunk to the bottom of the tank. How did you teach your red lipstick goby to accept being fed from tweezers and how often do you feed your red lipstick gobies?

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  2 роки тому

      If you watched my previous Hillstream aquarium I originally added 3 red lipstick gobies. Unfortunately the other two arrived so skinny and lived only for a month or so. They were very skittish and shy. Both of them were taking bloodworms only from the substrate. This one that I have now was always little bit different. I guess he just learned to associate tweezers with food. But now whenever he sees me in front of the aquarium he is up on the glass waiting to be feed. And I pass in front of that aquarium a lot. So basically he spends all day on the front glass.

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  2 роки тому

      Sorry I just saw that you also asked the feeding routine. I feed him bloodworms twice a week. And once a week live baby brine shrimps for the whole aquarium.

      Stiphodon blue are small gobies. You can add 6-8 but it all depends what other fish you have. Also keep in mind they don't eat dry food and need a lot of algae.
